the risk of disease exposure for humans once these animals were traded as pets. Antibiotic susceptibility patterns were also analyzed to esti-
mate the emergence of antibiotic-resistant Salmonella strains. Methods: Samples (n=40) were obtained by touching the skin around cloaca with 
sterile cotton swabs. Identification of Salmonella was conducted by a series of biochemical and genetic tests using polymerase chain reaction 
(PCR) techniques. Resistance to antibiotics was tested by the disc diffusion methods. Results: The prevalence of Salmonella in healthy reptiles 
in this study was 10%. Resistance was most commonly observed against streptomycin (75%) and norfloxacin (75%), followed by gentamicin 
(25%), nalidixic acid (25%) and tetracycline (25%). A total of 75% strains showed resistance to two or more antibacterial drugs. All Salmonella 
isolates proved to be susceptible to trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole and ampicillin. 4aSalmonella, reptiles, antibiotic resistance.  aAdji, Rahmat Sety  aLukman, D.W  aNingrum, Siti G  aPasaribu, F.H  aWibawan, I.W.T  ahttp://www.hvm.bioflux.com.ro/home/volume-8-4-2016/  aARTVET2318
